The Make a Wish Foundation UK grants magical wishes to enrich the lives of children and young people who are fighting life-threatening conditions. Wishes can range from being a princess for the day or meeting a hero, to going on a once-in-a-lifetime family holiday

Referrals can be made through the website or by phoning to find out more. Make a Wish accept wish referrals from parents or guardians, medical professionals and children themselves. If you have any questions about the wish process, give them a call.

To have their wish granted, a child needs to be a UK resident, aged between 3 and 17 years, and fighting a life-threatening condition. Make a Wish will speak to each child's consultant to establish whether their condition is medically classed as life-threatening.
